About this opportunity

An exciting opportunity has arisen within the Consumer Servicing and Engagement Platform for a Cloud Data Engineer. Collaborating with Business Analysts, Product Owners, Architects and Engineering Leads to build features, fostering the test and learn approach, you will be accountable for ensuring all decisions are made within a sound risk framework and within Group standards and appetite while managing the full software development process within an agile environment.

Here's where you'll make a difference:

An ideal Cloud Data Engineer will have a can-do attitude, interest in exploring technologies beyond your core skills, willing to learn, highly motivated and with a passion for working with people, working in a strong collaborative way to drive efforts to create, build, support and improve our applications. You also enjoy working closely with the product and other engineering teams with lots of exciting new challenges. You'll be a core contributor to ensure good quality and engineering practices are followed in accordance with engineering transformation strategy.

About us

Like the modern Britain we serve, we're evolving. Investing billions in our people, data and tech to transform the way we meet the ever-changing needs of our 26 million customers.

What you'll need

We believe that people don't fit neatly into roles, and we value everyone's individual skills, experience, and knowledge — it's what makes you amazing!

As a minimum to be considered, we would like to see demonstrated experience of:

• Strong Software Engineering background (Java & Golang preferred)
• Strong experience with cloud computing (GCP preferred)
• Real-Time Data Processing and Application streaming experience with Kafka
• Experience with Docker and container orchestration tools like Kubernetes
• You'll appreciate and acknowledge the impact of system design decisions on scalability, resilience, and supportability.

It is crucial that you bring the right mind-set to the role. We understand in such a diverse and disparate world no one person can be a specialist in all aspects. If you have the right technical background, a willingness to be part of a team dedicated to redefining the landscape and are willing to develop yourself then we're keen to hear from you.

About working for us

Our focus is to ensure we're inclusive every day, building an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms.

We want our people to feel that they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity, or culture.

We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative.

And it's why we especially welcome applications from under-represented groups.

We're disability confident. So, if you'd like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know.

We also offer a wide-ranging benefits package, which includes:

• A generous pension contribution of up to 15%
• An annual bonus award, subject to Group performance
• Share schemes including free shares!
• Benefits you can adapt to your lifestyle, such as discounted shopping.
• 30 days' holiday, with bank holidays on top
• A range of wellbeing initiatives and generous parental leave policies

Want to do amazing work, that's interesting and makes a difference to millions of people?
